Real political violence versus theoretical political violence

&NewLine;<p>One of the major political propaganda strategies employed by Democrats and their media cronies is constant allegations of right-wing violence – which they broadbrush onto the Republican Party&period;&nbsp&semi; I if you analyze the issue outside of the left’s narratives&comma; it proves to be more of a theory than a reality&period;&nbsp&semi;<&sol;p>&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;<p>None of the violence the left predicted on the anniversary of the January 6&comma; 2021&comma; Capitol Hill riot occurred&period;  None of the violent mobs appeared as they predicted when Trump was indicted&period; None of the daily fearmongers claims that Trump&&num;8217&semi;s language incites violence has resulted in any violence attributable to his statements&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;<p>Conversely&comma; we have witnessed REAL – and deadly &&num;8212&semi; left-wing violence repeatedly during the same period&period;  Remember the occupation of a portion of downtown Portland in which a police headquarters was taken over for weeks&quest;  People were murdered and died of overdoses in that so-called &OpenCurlyDoubleQuote;autonomous zone&period;”<&sol;p>&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;<p>More recently&comma; we have seen highly-funded professional left-wing riot inciters join with students and faculty on college campuses across the nation to riot and violently attack police and Jewish students – and vandalize and destroy property&period;&nbsp&semi;<&sol;p>&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;<p>While ignoring the fact of left-wing violence – and inventing false examples of right-wing violence &&num;8212&semi; those on the radical left seem to be hyper-sensitive to common criticism&period;  They elevate simple criticism to an attack&period;  The left does not tolerate criticism&period;  When they cannot censor or cancel it&comma; they complain about it&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;<p>Case in point&period;&nbsp&semi; California Congresswoman Maxine Waters recently complained that she is subjected to assaults from people who disagree with her positions or policies&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;<p>In a podcast interview&comma; Waters said &lpar;highlight added&rpar;&colon;<&sol;p>&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;<p><em>&OpenCurlyDoubleQuote;As a member of Congress with people &&num;8230&semi; you know &&num;8230&semi; who evidently had a racist attitude &&num;8230&semi; uh &&num;8230&semi; and recently one even confronted me in a restaurant&comma; and <strong>they don’t say racist things<&sol;strong>&comma; but what they say is &&num;8230&semi; uh &&num;8230&semi; they don’t like something I said&period;&nbsp&semi; They don’t like the position I took&period;&nbsp&semi; But you know that &&num;8230&semi; you know if you were not Black &&num;8230&semi; right&quest; &&num;8230&semi; uh &&num;8230&semi;&nbsp&semi; you would not be approached that way<&sol;em>&period;&nbsp&semi; &lpar;Podcast host&colon;&nbsp&semi; <em>Right&quest;&nbsp&semi; They would probably not<&sol;em>&period;&rpar;<em>&nbsp&semi; Right&quest; &nbsp&semi;They would think twice about doing it&period;&nbsp&semi; They think they can get away &&num;8230&semi;”<&sol;em><&sol;p>&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;<p>Now let us underscore that&period;  Folks come up to her in public and DO NOT say anything racist but express disagreement with her political positions or something she said&period; There are no threats &&num;8230&semi; no violence&period;  But Waters alleges she is the victim of racism&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;<p>So&comma; it is wrong and racist to tell Waters that you disagree with her statements and political positions&period;  But is that not what politicians are expected to hear from the public they represent&quest;  Do they not talk about &OpenCurlyDoubleQuote;hearing from the people” as an integral part of their job&quest;  Waters&comma; like so many on the radical left &&num;8212&semi; wants those with other opinions to keep them to themselves&period;  They want their opponents silenced&period; <&sol;p>&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;<p>Of course&comma; Waters is a hypocrite of the first magnitude&period; If you think not&comma; consider what she said not long ago&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;<p>In a recorded public rally&comma; Waters called on her supporters to harass&comma; assault and attack Republicans in public at every opportunity&period;&nbsp&semi; She wants them driven from the public commons&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;<p>Here is what she told her mob&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;<p><em>&OpenCurlyDoubleQuote;Let’s make sure we show up wherever we have to show up and if you see anybody from that <&sol;em>&lpar;Trump&rpar;<em> Cabinet in a restaurant &&num;8230&semi; in a department store &&num;8230&semi; at a gasoline station &&num;8230&semi; you get out and you create a crowd &&num;8230&semi; and you push back on them &&num;8230&semi; and you tell them they’re not welcome anymore &&num;8230&semi;anywhere&period;”<&sol;em><&sol;p>&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;<p>Waters repeated it in later television interviews&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;<p><em>&OpenCurlyDoubleQuote;These members of his <&sol;em>&lpar;Trump’s&rpar;<em> Cabinet who remain and try to defend him &&num;8230&semi;they’re not going to be able to go to a restaurant&period;&nbsp&semi; They’re not going to be able to stop at a gas station&period; They’re not going to be able to shop at a department store&period;&nbsp&semi; The people are going to turn on them&period;&nbsp&semi; They’re going to protest&period;&nbsp&semi; They’re going to &&num;8230&semi; uh &&num;8230&semi; absolutely harass them until they are going to tell the President &&num;8230&semi; no&comma; I can’t hang with you&period;”<&sol;em><&sol;p>&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;<p>What Waters is proposing is essentially an assault – engendering fear&period;  It is a violent crime &&num;8230&semi; a felony&period;   Typical of the liberal mind&comma; dissent is to be censored and canceled through potentially violent confrontation &&num;8230&semi; and she is not alone&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;<p>America’s senior race baiter&comma; Al Sharpton – speaking from his perch on MSNBC – said that Democrats have to bring the &OpenCurlyDoubleQuote;fight” to the streets – and he was not suggesting peaceful protests&period;  He said protestors should bring weapons&comma; including &OpenCurlyDoubleQuote;broken bottles&period;”<&sol;p>&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;<p>For the left&comma; violence is acceptable as long as the professed purpose supports the radical left agenda&period;&nbsp&semi; In that case&comma; they promote it &&num;8230&semi; tolerate it &&num;8230&semi; mischaracterize it &&num;8230&semi; and refuse to enforce it&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;<p>You may recall that violent protestors of the radical left took over a portion of downtown Seattle – including a police station &&num;8212&semi; and declared it to be the Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone &lpar;CHAZ&rpar;&period;&nbsp&semi; It led to an outbreak of crimes in and around the Zone – including robbery&comma; assaults&comma; rape and murder&period;&nbsp&semi; And yet&comma; the left-wing mayor described it as something akin to a summer festival&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;<p>Progressive prosecutors routinely refuse to enforce the law against violent protestors on the left&period;&nbsp&semi; Vice President Harris even donated money for the bail of rioters&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;<p>While the example of right-wing political violence is rare and mostly speculative or theoretical – and limited to fringe groups &&num;8212&semi; the real organized and frequent violence is coming from the left – whether it is the institutional racist violence against Blacks in Democrat-controlled cities or the well-organized and well-financed violence iconic in left-wing protests and rioting&period;  That is the predominant political violence Americans see on the television screen in real-time with great regularity&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;<p>So&comma; there &OpenCurlyQuote;tis&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;
